International English Language Testing System

I have a great deal of company in my house; especially in the morning, when nobody calls.

Hi Blog!
Mornings have been a great joy for me especially when I get the chance to sleep in the warm quite morning. Believe me I don’t get lots of chances to sleep in but when I do I go all the way.
Leading a youth group at Peace Lutheran Church is challenging in a good sense, challenges me intellectually, physically and most of all spiritually. Every Friday night I get to trust God that everything will go as planned and even better than planned, that’s when God comes in the lives of these kids. Just this last Saturday we went to a homeless shelter to sort clothes. It was a bold step for me to take since most parents are very protective of their kids and a homeless shelter is kinda rough and a bit dangerous. But not to worry we were in the back room with staff and the kids had a great time and they were soo excited that they would want to do it again.
It was the first time ever that this church did something like this, I hope it wont be the last.Well one things, for sure, is that I like to live on the edge, of course where no one gets hurt but stretched, the day I stop living on the edge I think it’s the day I stop breathing. For those who read my Blog please continue to pray for me and the ministry God entrusted to me here at Peace.
We have a congregation of about 70-80 members and around 8-10 youth who come on Friday night. We have 15 on paper. Continue to pray for this ministry as it grows spiritually and numerically.
As you can see from the photo, believe it or not, that’s the first Christian fiction I have ever read, and one chick told me he’s a great writer lets just say that I wont be reading any of his stuff again. That was a bad experience and to give him a chance I actually read every letter in the book!!!Anyway now I’m getting ready to take this test that every alien in Canada who wants to pursue permanent residency has to take this English test so that we can talk properly. I hear a lot of people fail the exam and it isn’t a cheap exam that’s for sure. Keep that in your concern so I can go back to ministry and reading Ted Dekker, jk.

Love

"It's possible to give without loving, but it is impossible to love without giving."

I got a sponsor Child today that I dont know a thing about. I think she is 2yrs old. Lots of thoughts have come to my mind about this action if it was the right one. I have always wanted to sponsor a child so I guess it was the right action.

I'm nervous, cause i dont know how to really do this thing, I want to get to know her but I dont think she can talk. She already has drawn a picture for me, I think she is the cutest girl I have ever seen. I'm sure for those who sponsor thing that of your kids but I think mine surpasses all of yours.

It's also a challenging thing to sponsor a child for however long it takes and to come up with cash all the time, and it's esp. hard when I'm going to school, but I know God will provide for me. He hasnt' let me down yet with things like deportation or failing to come with funds. Plus I have this incredible love for him and his people that I just had to do a little. One person said dont wait till you have enough to give give while you have a little. I think that's a good advice, I think.

the picture below is when I was in Japan, isn't it beautiful?

Bless You
